Important note: These decks are made exclusively for the Asia Region outside of Japan, specifically around South East Asia regions, as part of SEA’s own Asia-English format. These decks are not tournament legal in TCG regions the same reason OCG cards are not
@@bali5890 if you have an OTS local or go to Konami events, you cannot use OCG cards of any language due to the differences in rarity distributions (the thickness excuse is just a lie), and the tournament guidelines have always said you could not use Asian-English cards in TCG territories
We in Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and another SEA countries, play YGO but don't understand OCG text (if counted as OCG). So thanks for Konami for releasing this english OCG version for us
@@spicymemes7458 in Philippines, I used to play TCG version but only with my friends/classmates. joining in local tournament, we must play using OCG version
I wish these structure decks had every single piece of support for these themes. Imagine getting every single piece of support/adjacent support (like the ebon high magician and silvers cry) for DM and BEWD from the whole history of the game in one package. Would be awesome.
The fact that they get the uncensored art is based as hell. Maybe these Asian English cards could be a key to finally combining the TCG and OCG. Yeah we have different card backs, but official tournaments already require you to use sleeves anyways, so it would only matter for casual play where people would not care at all. Those power up packs are nuts too. Imagine if they started including something like rarity collection in each structure deck.
@@iBloodxHunter Yeah, otherwise you can be counted as considered having marked cards because cards can get scratched, or since not every card is printed and cut symmetrically the backs can be slightly different. So you must have sleeves to obscure them, and your main deck and extra deck cannot match.
@@CaptainMarvel4Ever The logic is absolutely sound, I just like the ygo card back. But also I don't see why the ocg back matters when you're not allowed to see it.
@@iBloodxHunter Yeah the YGO card back is great. You are allowed to double sleeve at tournaments, so if you like it you can buy those terrible sleeves Konami sells and get the ones that have the YGO back on it, then sleeve some nice clear matte Dragon Shield sleeves over them. Ya get the classic look in the back with good protection and shuffle feel. Exactly, by this point there shouldn't be any good reason they can't combine both. Even if I was playing casually with my friends and didn't use sleeves I doubt knowing whether my next card was from the west or from Asia would make a difference.
This is the Asia English edition, which is a long time no see for the asia area. So the AE is exclusive for asia only. Take hong kong as an example, we only have japanese card, we go with OCG. and the AE allows us to play these english card in tournament in HK, the AE also has its competition, players will use AE only card when making their decks.
Maybe Konami should start putting power up packs in the future tcg structure decks. Hell even release some tcg exclusive structure decks like say an Armed Dragon Dragunity structure deck with the power up pack containing the legal dragon rulers as foils along with the new blaster Xyz.
@@kish45 Because they don’t put physical packs into the decks, they just cut the middleman and put their contents into the deck proper For example, the tokens in Albaz Strike in the TCG were in a seperate pack in Alba Strike in the OCG
They are legal for Japanese OCG Tournament. We will likely have "Asia-English" exclusive Tournament as well. This means a smaller card pool unless they plan to roll out more Asia English cards
Can you try to make a deck that contains stardust and some cards from those two decks? I know it sounds a little weird but I think it might be fun and pretty good
Back in the day I got my hands on the dragunity structure deck just to have dragon ravine in my blue eyes deck and now the new blue eyes structure deck simply has it already in there 😂
@@tickledeggzI hope your garbage deck gets hit next banlist. I think DM and BE are bad but they're better for the game than any meta deck in the last 15 years.
I noticed on the ring of destruction in the blue eyes deck that it from the original is flames and in that one it looks like they're look like grenades. I'm like what?
A Question. Why can you not use this Card in TCG? Only by the Back of the Cards? But you use Sleeves? The Front is the Same as other TCG Versions of this Cards.
When the power up packs for these Asian English exclusive SDs only contains a sliver of bewds or dm support cards, in each pack, you know you got lucky getting the cards you got. Now try to get the ccg versions of the same decks. Istg they’re far better in the power pack choices. I was surprised you got black rose moonlight though.
Surely the TCG releases these, its like the perfect way to use nostalgia bait to get people back into it. Decks with the two iconic monsters with more modern support, even tho they arent meta relevant at least these are useable and makes an affordable option for casual/nostalgia players who want to get back into it
Im trying to get into Yu-gi-oh again and although pendulum decks is like reading a book, Ive always liked Odd-eyes pendulum dragon. Is there an affordable "meta" deck around pendulums/Odd-Eyes pendulum dragon? Thanks for the help! :D
Are you making more deck boxes this year? I love my DMG one i got, i can see the recent ghost reaper one is only half an image. ;) So I'm assuming there will be another coming out that matches with ghost cherries , just like with the DMG and Enchantress! cheers maybe we can get a ghost mourner one :D cheers
Man would love to have those Decks but Yugi‘s Dragon Fusions but not Timaeus? How do you summon them? And also I don’t understand why there are so many cool Dark Magians but they always put in newer Decks the ugly one with the stone tablet behind it? Same goes for Blue Eyes White Dragon would ratet Like to have the one from LoD Booster
Very shook! We now have not one but two common versions of Magician souls (if you count the ccg/custom Cardgame version of these same decks) in addition to the Asian English one. XD what is Konami on these days I wonder.
Looks like a awesome product and I dont even play yu gi oh but if you buy 3 of each you got yourself a great deck or buy 3 fire king structure deck awesome value
Important note: These decks are made exclusively for the Asia Region outside of Japan, specifically around South East Asia regions, as part of SEA’s own Asia-English format. These decks are not tournament legal in TCG regions the same reason OCG cards are not
And I rly got bated with these common reprints 😭
Then why are we buying them? Just for collection?
@ggnore8501 yes people do collect ocg stuff too
So how can we buy them? I need these for my collection. So awesome.
So we getting trash dub artworks
The timing of you opening these though
I hope these decks get a TCG release. I hate that even after reprints, TCG magicians souls is still a $25+ single.
This comment right here is speaking facts
My suggestions is, import your ocg copy now.
@@williammarshal4043lol no kidding, friend plays dm and the commons are 7.50 a pop.
I dont get it...why cant you just get an english OCG card? (sorry I dont know how it works)

Welcome to the Ocg. Decent decks, affordable prices, sturdier cards, power up packs for structure-decks
Omg Japanese uncensored DMG @3:56 IN ENGLISH?! i gotta have that
We in Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and another SEA countries, play YGO but don't understand OCG text (if counted as OCG). So thanks for Konami for releasing this english OCG version for us
Those S.E.A ( South East Asia ) countries count was OCG
@@4EverBanishment yeah we are OCG, but before this asian-english, we are playing with kanji text of OCG, which is not familiar for us.
Sounds like these countries should be a part of the TCG instead in that case
@@spicymemes7458asia should be OCG not TCG tho
@@spicymemes7458 in Philippines, I used to play TCG version but only with my friends/classmates. joining in local tournament, we must play using OCG version
They really should have printed Bingo-Machine in the Blue eyes deck
It’s in the power up pack
What do you not have a copy of it
@@GBC-STRAY dog meat
@@Morzhar yes or mon
@@GBC-STRAY mon
Released date November 11, 2023 and only exclusively for the South East Asia regions thats why they have the OCG backs
Always puts a smile on my face when you get high off smelling the cards!

Silvers cry is in the deck
Kinda sad that blue eye alternative was not in the structure deck
Its in the power-up pack as a chance to pull one to “power up” your deck
Kinda sad Blue Eyes couldn't have an alternative art.

Giving us Amulet Dragon instead of The Dark Magicians is a War Crime by Konami
Sam sees Dark Magician Girl, “Where are my sleeves at!”
I want it old that's gotcha inside and release out and new then gets what you knaw😮😮😮😮😮
i am so over that dark magician art variant. kind of a miss to not go with the classic purple here imo
Konami is trying WAY too hard to push these crappy versions for WAY too long.
When the power up back is better than the structure deck! 🔥
I love the smell of a fresh pack of cards as well, snorting in that scent like its cocaine
Maybe Konami should start putting power up packs in the future tcg structure decks. Hell even release some tcg exclusive structure decks like say an Armed Dragon Dragunity structure deck with the power up pack containing the legal dragon rulers as foils along with the new blaster Xyz.
Konami actually just puts in the power up pack contents into TCG structures
@@insertcolorherehawk3761 Really? They actually put physical power up packs in structure decks.
@@kish45 Essentially, so anything that had to be in a power-up pack, was just put into the deck proper
@@insertcolorherehawk3761 If that’s the case how come there none in the tcg structure decks I have bought recently had any power up packs?
@@kish45 Because they don’t put physical packs into the decks, they just cut the middleman and put their contents into the deck proper
For example, the tokens in Albaz Strike in the TCG were in a seperate pack in Alba Strike in the OCG
They look like the reloads back in the day I believe in 04 05
Those power up cards seemed like it was worth buying the decks alone lol
Im just buy single dark magician and tripe blue eyes for my binder
They are legal for Japanese OCG Tournament. We will likely have "Asia-English" exclusive Tournament as well. This means a smaller card pool unless they plan to roll out more Asia English cards
Where can you buy these currently?
I hope they do a yusei type structure deck like crimson king
Can you try to make a deck that contains stardust and some cards from those two decks? I know it sounds a little weird but I think it might be fun and pretty good
I love the honesty Sam.
As someone from SEA, I am excited for english releases.
Back in the day I got my hands on the dragunity structure deck just to have dragon ravine in my blue eyes deck and now the new blue eyes structure deck simply has it already in there 😂
Yeah but you can use yours this reprint isn't for the tcg
No you can't still love them though great for my collection
Sam hiding his fading hairline with a front fringe makes me happy for him
Yes please been asking for more TCG content
It's OCG
Im building mt crimson king beginner deck using you're $30 video it helped very much
Not having these in the TCG is borderline criminal
We dont need more reprints for dead archetypes. Esepcoally not DM or BEWD, we need Neta relevant prints and less awful nostaloga product.
@@tickledeggzthe decks definitely could have been better, but I think it's perfectly fine to have casual products once in a while.
Agreed
@@tickledeggzas a casual player 3x copies of the DM deck is worth it for the Magicians’ Souls reprints alone. I’m not paying $30/copy to play DM.
@@tickledeggzI hope your garbage deck gets hit next banlist. I think DM and BE are bad but they're better for the game than any meta deck in the last 15 years.
You and Rhymestyle both posted at the same time
It's a real shame that we don't see the us version of these decks but it's awesome to see these at the same time
I noticed on the ring of destruction in the blue eyes deck that it from the original is flames and in that one it looks like they're look like grenades. I'm like what?
the grenades is the original and uncensored.
A Question.
Why can you not use this Card in TCG? Only by the Back of the Cards? But you use Sleeves? The Front is the Same as other TCG Versions of this Cards.
the card stock itself is thicker than the ones printed in the tcg
Hope this product hits the tcg
Woah that's so much brand new gets inside bro. Sam ask much in oldest got so wow 💯💖😍🤩😮

As a person who played the game since the game came out awesome decks just awesome
I just started following and I love these videos bro is litt!
I will definitely be buying both decks, looks like fun 💙💜. I purchased Legendary Decks II some years back before the prices went sky high.
the blue eyes deck got shafted hard tbh
Power up cards are actual brilliant!

3:50 actually opening
Hold up, isn't the 25th anniversary over? Or am I missing something? 😂
These are AE structure decks mainly for SEA countries and I don't think this is tournament legal for the western bros.
That’s the unfortunate part about ocg or ccg @@glassdtomato4046 not tourney legal at all 😭
I wish all structure decks came the a power up pack
Best thing about those decks is power up packs

Those are my two most disliked DM and Blue eyes card designs but they always get reprinted lmao
Great Video ! 🔥
You are the best, most hard working Yugioh RUclipsr 🐐
You better be using 3 of for the challenge.
Wow, that Blue Eyes structure deck with Blue Eyes Jet is killer. Now just need a Dictator and of to a great start.
10:52 Im still waiting to see that, was looking super forward to that... :(
The blue eyes deck seems very similar to the legend of BEWD with the exception of the power up packs. How would we get these? Very good decks overall.
What's the song that starts @4:42 ❤?
Love your channel bro thanks again for the awesome content
Man would love to have those Decks but Yugi‘s Dragon Fusions but not Timaeus? How do you summon them? And also I don’t understand why there are so many cool Dark Magians but they always put in newer Decks the ugly one with the stone tablet behind it? Same goes for Blue Eyes White Dragon would ratet Like to have the one from LoD Booster
Silly question but how does someone like Sam store his cards? Especially when you start to develop a bigger collection?
Power up packs are a dope add
So cool those structure 🃏
I love those hollows.
Will the new Phantom Nightmare booster boxes have a power-up pack?
As a Kaiba and Akiza simp I'll probably be getting my hands on that blue eyes deck 😂
Where is the Duel Night Episode
Don't forget about the dark magicians fusion card.
no alternate? no ultimate blue eyes ? crap
*Nice bracelet you got* van Cleef ❤
Awesome video man it’s sad that they are not tcg legal
Sam, when is coming the new god tier blue eyes deck profile post january 1st banlist?
these better come to the tcg
The re-prints are just insane for Yu-Gi-Oh!
They did the blue eyes dirty
I’ll like to have these deck just as collection for old times sakes
Very shook! We now have not one but two common versions of Magician souls (if you count the ccg/custom Cardgame version of these same decks) in addition to the Asian English one. XD what is Konami on these days I wonder.
They gave dark magician girl a buff
Red Eyes NEEDS one 😭
Where you buy them from?
Will they release these in US? Might just buy it even if imported
Looks like a awesome product and I dont even play yu gi oh but if you buy 3 of each you got yourself a great deck or buy 3 fire king structure deck awesome value
SO CLOSE to best MasterDuel META ever :O
Did you guys do away with master wheel
Where did you buy these?
Where can I buy this structure decks in the US?
Guess I'm going to work on my black magic again
Do you guys think there's a chance we can get this in TCG?
Can you tell me when these decks will be released in Europe and if that has already happened where you can find them
most likely no.
@@akmalfakhruddin7285 thank you but now im sad
Glad to know Im not the only guy that smell brand new yugioh cards xD

Finish the tier wheel lol I love your duels
Didn't Rhyme just schooled you in his recent video? 😂
